Collect the priceless manuscript pages, which flash helpfully. Avoid the monsters. Live the dream.

Tom's Halls originated as a test project to develop a simple 2D platform game engine using Javascript, CSS, and strict XHTML.
I also wanted to emulate the feel of some classic 80's platform games such as Jet Set Willy, Montezuma's Revenge, and Dynamite Dan, and to see how far I could take this in a web context.

The original version featured only 2 screens. Eventually, however, I was harassed into advancing the game further....

During development of this game I have tried to adhere to W3C web standards. It has been tested in Firefox 3.0.3, Chrome 0.3.154.9 (erratic DOM update speed!), Opera 9.62, and IE7 on PC, and Firefox 3.0.3 and Safari 3.1.2 on Mac. Other browsers cannot be vouched for!

With love,
